Membership

We've put all of our experience in WordPress, WordPress MultiSite, WPMU and BuddyPress to bring you this fantastic membership plugin.

Simple to use, fully supported and massively flexible - this will meet all of your membership sites needs.

So if you'd like to create a site like GigaOm, Izzy Video, PSD Tuts or our very own WPMU DEV... now you can do that with ease!

Essentially Membership allows you to transform your WordPress, WPMU or BuddyPress site into a fully functional membership site - where you can provide access to downloads, online content, videos, forums, support and more through flexible membership levels and options.

So, you can use Membership to create...

• A WordPress membership site, offering resources, forums, downloads, videos, support and more... with multiple different levels of membership and complete customizations
• Multiple membership sites on a WPMU / WordPress MultiSite install - so any user of your site can have their own membership site, combine with Supporter to make this a feature they pay for - or you could run dozens of membership sites yourself
• A BuddyPress membership site, where different groups and blogs are only visible to members, so members can join for free and then upgrade to key groups and forums

How does it work... well, it's really easy.

Simply follow the instructions in the installation and configuration guide

You'll then be able to create Membership 'Levels' which can access different types of content, ranging from 'free' (i.e users just visiting the site) to any number of paid levels.

You can control access to:

• Downloads
• Categories
• Pages
• Posts
• Comments
• 'More' tags
• Galleries
• BuddyPress groups
• BuddyPress blogs
• And *any content or functionality* (like forums!), via multiple different shortcodes

And you can also create multiple different levels of subscriptions, for example you can decide to:

• Offer free memberships that turn into paid subscriptions after x days
• Finite or indefinite subscriptions
• Serial renewing subscriptions
• Subscriptions that renew every 5, 10, 30, 90 etc. days
• And plenty more...

Perhaps the best thing about this plugin though - besides it's ease of use and flexibility - is that it's as much a framework as anything else.

You can, and WPMU DEV will, add multiple different gateways and functionality straight into it with ease - any half decent WordPress developer should be able to do exactly that!

For example, adding gateways is easy - and we'll be adding plenty more - all you need to do is create a gateway along the lines of one that we supply and you'll be good to go.

And of course, you'll never have any trouble with upgrades, different WordPress, WPMU or BuddyPress versions - as this is covered by our Upgrades and Support Guarantee!

Enjoy!
